Blaberus Giganteus from Notes by Mary Willoughby

Groveling under the mud and spreading disease
Forgetting the touch of sun and what my skin feels
Clogging up the sewer drains and becoming verminous
She has come to kill and set me free

She's the ample ampulex inside my thorax
She's the deltametherin inside my bloodstream
She's a wasp and I am roach

Chemicals pass the wall
Set my brain alight
She's got the kiss of death
To kill this roach tonight

Now my blood is boiling
Finally awake
I've been sent a woman
To put me in my grave

Feel synapses stopping
Feel my body ache
Feel the warmth surround me
Bleed my carapace

I'm pushing down
Into the ground
Sucking the filth
Searching for worth
Nothing but meat
Under my feet
I'm Blaberus
Giganteus

Rushing little legs and hard carapace
Nesting little pest to be laid to waste
Neurotic thoughts inside a bug brain
She has got to kill and set me free

She's the ample ampulex inside my thorax
She's the deltametherin inside my bloodstream
She's a wasp and I am roach

Feel synapses stopping
Feel my body ache
Feel the warmth surround me
Bleed my carapace

I'm pushing down
Into the ground
Sucking the filth
Searching for worth
Nothing but meat
Under my feet
I'm Blaberus
Giganteus

I woke up as a roach
God gave me no reproach
Angel come punish me
Let me see true beauty

Worthless in my eyes
Beauty from hatred
I've become sublime
Shaping my brain
Living for the tergal
